5.0 out of 5 stars Boy, Beav, you've done it this time!, September 21, 1998

By	[e-mail] (KANSAS, USA) - See all my reviews

The highest compliment I can give a book is that it made me laugh out loud, and this book did frequently. If you're a "Beav" fan, you've got to read this. The book is neatly divided into quotes, biographies and a synopsis of all episodes (including the "soup cup/billboard" episode-my personal favorite). There's even life according to Eddie Haskell. Buy it but be prepared to sneak peeks at it when you should be doing something more "adult-like".

4.0 out of 5 stars A classic coming of age sitcom, October 18, 2001

By	Scott N. Burton (Bridgeport,CT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I remember watching "Leave It To Beaver" when I was growing up in the 1960's-It was a well-written show,which looked at life from the perspective of a young boy-In my opinion,it's one of the best sitcoms of all time-Now that it's on the TV Land cable network,I never miss a single episode-Irwyn Applebaum did a fantastic job in putting this book together-Not only do you get classic lines of dialogue,but you get a thorough summary of all 254 episodes-Whether your favorite character was Wally,the Beav,Lumpy,or that meanie Eddie Haskell,you'll have a great time reading this book-Highly recommended for the true Beaver fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest books I own !, June 10, 2000

By	Mouseketeer "gidgetmoondoggie" (Midwest) - See all my reviews

If you aren't already an expert on "The Leave It To Beaver" TV show, you will be soon after buying and reading this book! The dialogue from the old shows is too funny! I took this book to work and every baby-boomer there was laughing out loud as I read the classic Eddie Haskell lines to them! Wonderful read, wonderful stuff. You will appreciate just how talented the writers from this old series were. Maybe it's because the storylines came from real-life situations! "Wally...have we been tooken?" You won't be with this purchase!
